Noninvasive pulsed radiofrequency for trigeminal neuralgia: Off the beaten path - Case series.

Abstract

Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a debilitating condition characterized by excruciating facial pain resulting from dysfunction in the trigeminal nerve. Treatment options are limited. Noninvasive pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) therapy is an emerging promising approach to managing TN. This therapy provides pain control without tissue damage or unpleasant side effects compared to invasive procedures. Here, we present five cases of trigeminal neuralgia successfully managed with noninvasive PRF therapy. Our case series contributes to the existing literature and supports the potential efficacy of noninvasive PRF therapy for TN.
